Summer Fun

It's hard to believe that summer is almost half gone, but at least that means we still have half of it left. The girls have been loving being outside, and so have Mom and Dad. We had a fun 4th, and in South Dakota its legal to shoot fireworks, so we have had lots of mini shows in our backyard while working up to the big one. We also made a trip to Eastern Iowa, heading to Iowa City and a visit to Travis's family. Other days are filled with some sort of water fun, the park, bubbles, cousins, cruising in the double stroller, and maybe topped off with some ice cream.

4th of July (and a few pics from a prior night of giant sparklers, snakes and smoke bombs, which can entertain little ones for hours)

Eastern Iowa Pics
We were able to make a trip to eastern iowa and visited Travis's family. The girls had a lot of fun getting up close and personal with some chickens and a cute little calf.....



Pictures from our visit to Iowa City....


While in IC, we were able to visit our good friends Nick and Steph, and their little girl Ainsley. Ainsley has a fun swingset in her backyard, which was heaven for Olivia!

We also visited our good friends, the Fields family in IC. Olivia and Anna were able to play with Noah who is 1 1/2, and we were able to meet his new baby sister Sophia Ann, who is so sweet.
